Tour description



Discover one of the South Pacific’s most enchanting—and still wonderfully unspoilt—destinations on this idyllic holiday to Samoa. Often described as “the happy heart of Polynesia,” Samoa has preserved its traditional way of life, known as fa’a Samoa, creating a travel experience that feels genuine, warm and deeply connected to community. With its emerald mountains, turquoise lagoons, friendly villages and rich cultural traditions, the islands offer a gentle balance of natural beauty and heartfelt hospitality. From vibrant markets and historic landmarks to peaceful beaches and crystal-clear marine reserves, each day brings a new moment to savour.

Your home for eight nights is the stunning Taumeasina Island Resort, beautifully positioned just minutes from Apia with sweeping ocean and mountain views from every corner of the island. With deluxe ocean-view rooms, an inviting lagoon, and a range of activities—from cultural shows and cooking demonstrations to kayaking, snorkelling and simple poolside relaxation—the resort offers comfort, variety and the perfect sense of escape. A beautifully paced itinerary includes island tours, cultural experiences, marine encounters and time to unwind, capped off by a memorable Fia Fia dinner celebrating dance, storytelling and Samoan tradition. With generous inclusions and plenty of time to enjoy paradise at your own pace, this is a journey that blends discovery, culture and pure tropical relaxation.

Testimonials

Dear John Thank you and your team for arranging our Melbourne cup and King Island holiday. I enjoyed everything we did. Top accommodation and delicious meals. Your commentary was excellent. As was the way you looked after us all. King Island was as I anticipated plus the bonus of Michael Hill who made the day very interesting with his great stories and good humour. The meals on King Island were just super. Kerry did a magnificent job as the nicest “mother hen”. She capably looked after her “chickens”, especially this old “rooster”. Kerry made the delay at the Melbourne airport bearable by constantly providing updates and free vouchers. A special thank you to her. I must also mentioned the delightful Debbie. She is an excellent ambassador for your company. A very competent driver. Very pleasant and professional on the phone and in person. From the above, I trust you will appreciate I had a very very good trip. I look forward to again travelling with On Course (of course!) Cheers. Peter.

Dear John and Kerry, Debbie and Steve, thank you all so much at On Course Tours for the hugely successful and absolutely wonderful trip to South Australia. Tricia and I loved every moment and were amazed and delighted by how much South Australia has to offer in so very many ways, food especially and of course very many superb wines and wineries – topped off, as John rightly said, by Max’s selection of a delightful crowd of good club friends! John, you and On Course Tours are certainly a class act. You always try very hard, and you succeed, in going that ‘extra mile’. We could not have had better service, right from being picked up at the gate by Kerry, then enjoying your nearly 4,000km of safe, always careful but wonderfully exploratory driving, your delicious picnic provisioning, your excellent selection of accommodation and eateries and your very broad knowledge of all we saw, right thorough to being delivered safely home last night. With our best wishes and so many thanks to you all at On Course Tours for another truly wonderful holiday. We look forward with keen anticipation to the next!

Tricia and Martin
